Wireless Joint

Anyone else have this issue or know what could be the problem?

Several times each day, my NEXP1GO/WG3526-P will randomly go out for usually about 5–10 minutes (sometimes much longer), then it will usually come back online on its own after some time. The router is powered by a Unifi POE switch, and ...

May try disabling IPV6 and use IPV4 only.

If you are using WiFiX/ROOter/GoldenOrb firmware, go to MODEM>CONNECTION PROFILE DEFAULT PROFILE > PROTOCOL TYPE > IPV4

SAVE & APPLY, and reboot the router.

This initially helped a month or two ago with the old Sprint sim, but the new one doesn't ...

I did try that (for the purpose of troubleshooting) and that resolved the issue. So it seems that T-Mobile has blacklisted my EM20-G's IMEI and in less than 24 hours of it being on the network.

FYI, for anyone's reference:
I tried calling T-Mobile Business to see if they could authorize the IMEI ...

Modem: Quectel EM20-G (4G)
Router: WG3526 (now running WiFiX-NEXP1GO-GO2022-03-23a firmware)

Before Calyx terminated my Sprint plan and switched me to their T-Mobile plan, my setup was working just fine. Calyx just sent me the T-Mobile SIM and a 5G M2000 hotspot, and I first tested it out in the ...

Thank you for the recommendation. I ended up using those support arms, but I used my own 2” pole since I preferred my bottom enclosure to be aligned vertically and immediately under the top enclosure, and since my eave is not long enough to accommodate a J mount bracket or even an under-eave mount ...

Could someone please recommend a mount to me? I was surprised how heavy my boxes would be, but this Wilson mount was pretty awful. I thought the plate the would be made out of steel, but it’s aluminum and you can see it’s bending under weight in my janky setup.

Ideally I wanted to have both boxes ...

Yes I'm using a Sprint hotspot SIM. That command seems to have done the trick. Thanks for your help.

I notice I get a couple errors such as:

Yes I am using a SIM card adapter. I ran that command and it said SIM not detected, so I checked the SIM and it was upside down... I guess I lost orientation of up from down after removing the M.2 PCB from the USB enclosure. I seem to have inserted it correctly now.

However it still won't connect ...

I just installed my EM20-G modem, downgraded the firmware, and connected it to my WG3526 router with the latest version of WiFiX. It does not appear to connect. Can someone help me troubleshoot? I'm sure it's just a matter of the right AT commands, but I have no knowledge or resource for those. Here ...

Thank you. Ya I actually saw your post on that new router when searching for a solution. It seems pretty enticing, but it looks like it’s only available direct from the manufacturer right now? I’m surprised GoldenOrb firmware is already available on it though. I’ll probably want to wait until there ...

Yes the modem/enclosure will be in a remote location, 10 ft above a steep roof, and I’d like to have easy access to the router. The alternative would be running 4x 15 ft of coax to get the modem indoors, but that seems like too much signal loss to me.

I saw recommendations for USB hubs in search ...

I plan to use the EM20-G in that M.2 NGFF to USB 3.0 adapter and power it with a single USB cable coming from a WG3526 router and that router's upgraded power supply. Will this be enough power, or do I need to send power to the aux power port, too?

Ideally, I'd like to run only 1 USB cable from the ...

I'm currently testing the 4x mimo flat panel antenna that The Wireless Haven has for sale. It's "only" 8dbi, but that is common for a wideband antenna. The 4x panel seems to outperform my 2 - 2x antennas! I've got much more testing to do.


I'm considering using this antenna, too, with an EM20-G ...

All else equal, which would be faster: 3xCA with B25+B41+B41 or 3xCA with B41+B41+B41? Would the answer be the same with more channels? 5G modems should be spec'd to handle much greater CA, like 16 channels, so I'm wondering, would the same apply for 16xCA? This is assuming a clear LOS to a single ...

If I'm using a modem with 4 MHF4 connector ports (EM20-G), how might I add the 2 additional antenna ports to the router? Could I just use 2 of the WIFI antenna slots or would I need to drill holes in the enclosure?

All else equal, which would I expect higher speeds from? 4 of the DP727L15 antennas or 2 of the 1DE2427X19 or 1 of the 1DP727X8 antennas? I am 2 miles from a Sprint tower with clear LOS.

1) Would the extra gain from the DP727L15 or 1DE2427X19 be worth it? 15 dBi and 19 dBi seems like a pretty ...
